How to install SDKMAN on FreeBSD 12 RELEASE?

Question

I'm trying to install SDKMAN package manager on a FreeBSD machine. I successfully executed:

curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash

The problem occurs when I am trying to run:

source "/root/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"

I got the following error in the terminal:

Illegal variable name.

FreeBSD doesn't have bash by default, so you're probably running different shell. Try running bash first to enter bash prompt and then run that source ... command.
